Description

This is a division of application Ser. No. 08/115,257 filed on Sep. 2, 1993, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,397,785, which is a continuation of Ser. No. 07/853,519 filed on Mar. 18, 1992, now abandoned, which is a continuation of Ser. No. 07/610,059 filed on Nov. 7, 1990 now abandoned.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a novel 4-acylaminopyridine derivative and a pharmaceutically acceptable acid-added salt thereof useful for activating a malfunctioned cholinergic neuron.
As a therapeutic treatment for various disturbances of memory such as Alzheimer's disease characterized by malfunction of a cholinergic neuron, has been made an attempt to increase the acetylcholine content in the brain by using an antiacetylcholinesterase. For example, investigation on the use of physostigmine is reported in Neurology, 8, 397(1978). Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open (KOKAI) Nos. 61-148154(1986), 63-141980(1988), 63-225358(1988), 63-238063(1988), 63-239271(1988),63-284175(1988), 63-297367(1988), 64-73(1989) and 1-132566(1989), EP-A-268871 and International Publication of PCT 88/02256 report that a particular derivative of 9-anminotetrahydroacridine has an antiacetylcholinesterase activity and is therefore useful for treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
Summers reports in The New England Journal of Medicine, 315, 1241(1986) that 9-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridine (tacrine) is effective for treatment of Alzheimer's disease when used together with lecithin. However, improvement is still insufficient and it produces undesirable side effects, and therefore, a new therapeutic treatment has been demanded.
As examples of the known 9-acylaminotetrahydroacridines, 9-acylaminotetrahydroacridine is described in Journal of Chemical Society, 634(1947) and 9-chloroacetylaminotetrahydroacridine and 9-dietylaminoacetylaminotetrahydroacridine are described in Chem. listy, 51, 1907(1957). 9-Diemethylaminoacetylaminotetrahydroacridine is described to have a local anesthetic action. In Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 18, 1056(1975), structure-activity correlation on antiacetylcholinesterase activity of 9-aminotetrahydroacridine derivatives and it is reported that the activity of 9-acetylaminotetrahydroacridine and 9-benzoylaminotetrahydroacridine is 1/1000 of the activity of 9-aminotetrahydroacridine.

Although the antiacetylcholinesterase activity of the compound represented by the formula (I) is 1/100 of that of known 9-aminotetrahydroacridine, the compound of the present invention can reactivate the presynaptic site of the cholinergic neuron to enhance the neurotransmission. More precisely, the compound of the present invention improves the reduced high-affinity choline-uptake in the hippocampak synaptosome of a rat treated with AF64A (ethylcholine aziridinium ion; J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 222, 140(1982) and Neuropharmacol., 26, 361(1982)) intra-cerebroventricularly (Test Example 1 below). This kind of action is not observed in 9-aminotetrahydroacridine.
Further, the compound of the present invention is very low in toxicity and scarcely produces side effect in comparison with 9-aminotetrahydroacridine, and therefore, the compound of the present invention can be a useful medicine for treating disturbances of memory such as Alzheimer's disease.
The compound of the present invention represented by the formula (I) is a pharmaceutically active and valuable compound. Especially, the compound of the present invention is useful as a medicine for treating disturbances of memory such as senile dementia and Alzheimer's disease, since it has an action on the activating malfunctioned cholinergic neuron.
In senile dementia, in particular, Alzheimer's disease, the function of the cholinergic neuron in the bran is decreased, and it is recognized that there is a good correlation between the deficit in the cholinergic neuron and the degree of disturbances in memory.
As reported by Fisher (J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 222, 140(1982)) and Leventer (Neuropharmacol, 26, 361(1987)), AF64A causes long-term malfunction selectively on cholinergic neuron, and disturbance of memory and learning is observed in a rat to which AF64A is administered. Such a rat is used as a good model of Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, from the above pharmacological results, the compound of the present invention is considered to be useful for treating senile dementia including Alzheimer's disease.
EXAMPLES:
The present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the following examples, but it is to be understood that the present invention is not restricted to the following examples and any modification is possible within the scope of the present invention.
Example 1: Synthesis of N-(3-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]-quinolin4-yl)butanamide
To 4.37 g of 4-amino-3-methyl -5,6,7,8-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]quinoline, were added 8 ml of pyridine and 12.7 g of n-butyric anhydride and the mixture was refluxed for 13 hours. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness under a reduced pressure, and dissolved in 170 ml of methanol and 40 ml of ethanol. To the solution, was added 70 ml of concentrated ammonia water and the reaction was carried out at 65° C. for 1.5 hours.
The solvent was evaporated under a reduced pressure and 100 ml of chloroform, 100 ml of water and 5 ml of concentrated ammonia water were added, followed by stirring. The chloroform layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate.
The chloroform solution was evaporated. The obtained product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform-methanol) and was recrystallized from chloroform-diethyl ether to obtain 5.11 g of the titled compound having the melting point of 200° to 202° C.

Example 30: Synthesis of N-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]-quinolin -4-yl)urea
A mixture of 8.17 g of 4-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]quinoline and 90 ml of trichloroacetyl chloride was refluxed for 4 hours. The mixture was cooled to 25° C. and 30 ml of 1,2-dichloroethane was added thereto. The crystals were filtered out and washed with 1,2-dichloroethane.
The suspension of the crystals in 200 ml of chloroform and 120 ml of water was added with 5 ml of concentrated ammonia water. After the chloroform layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, it was purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform). By recrystallization from chloroform-n-heptane, 11.84 g of N-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-b]-quinolin-4-yl)trichloroacetamide having the melting point of 176° to 178° C. was obtained.
In 20 ml of N-methylpyrrolidone, was dissolved 3.5 g of the obtained compound. After adding 6.2 g of ammonium acetate to the solution, the reaction was carried out at 150° C. for 30 minutes. After cooled to 30° C., the reaction mixture was added with 100 ml of water and 50 ml of chloroform, followed by stirring. The pH of the aqueous layer of the mixture was adjusted to 10 with concentrated ammonia water.

Example 53: Synthesis of 2-((S)-5-methyl-2,4-dioxoimidazolidin-1-yl)-N -(1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridin-9-yl)acetamide
In 9 ml of N-methylpyrrolidone, was dissolved 3.9 g of the compound obtained in Example 38, and 2.64 g of urea was further added thereto. The reaction was carried out at 160° C. for one hour. The reaction mixture was cooled to 80° C. and 100 ml of water was added. The precipitated crystals were collected by filtration and dissolved in a mixture of 5 ml of methanol and 150 ml of chloroform. The solution was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness. The obtained product was recrystallized from ethanol-ethyl acetate to obtain 2.44 g of the titled compound having the melting point of 260° to 263° C.

Test Example 1: Na+ dependent high-affinity choline uptake ability (HACU) of the brain of a rat treated with AF64A
AF64A was prepared from AF64 in accordance with the method of Fischer et al. (J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 222, 140(1982)). AF64A (1.5 nmol/1.5 μl/side) was injected into both the lateral ventricles of a rat. One week after, the rat was decapitated and only the hippocampus was taken out. The hippocampus was homogenized with 0.32M of sucrose and centrifuged at 1000 g for 10 minutes. The supernatant thereof was further centrifuged at 20000 g for 20 minutes to obtain a crude synapse fraction. The crude synapse fraction was added with a compound of the present invention and incubated at 37° C. for 30 minutes. After adding [3 H]choline (1 μM), the mixture was further incubated at 37° C. for 10 minutes. Another crude synapse fraction was incubated at 37° C. for 10 minutes and used as the control. The reaction was discontinued by filtering the mixture with suction on a Whatman GF/B filter. The radioactivity on the filter was measured by a liquid scintillation counter and the measured value was regarded as the amount of HACU. The amount of protein was determined in accordance with the method of Bradford (Anal. Biochem., 72, 248(1976)). The results are shown in Table 11.
